For year, consumers have been complaining that TV commercials are too loud. Advertisers plan it that way to get our attention.

Now a bill is heading to the desk of President Obama that would prevent network and cable advertisers from blasting viewers out of their chairs with high decibel levels.

The bad news: The bill would take two years to fully implement.

QUESTION: Is this unnecessary regulation by the federal government, or do you support this action? Tell us about the commercial you find most annoying.
